Coming to Dave (yes that Dave) TV channel a show with Marcus de Sautoy &
Dara O'Briain (Picture from uktv.co.uk web-site (link below))
Maths goes head to head with a comedian and 'sometimes wins'. It is based on an Emmy-award nominated Japanese programme Comaneci University Mathematics.
A light hearted approach to how maths underpins everyday life (I have heard that it even uses Bayesian statistics on one show).
Starts on Monday 16th April at 8pm on Dave
